The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
Produces a clear, step-by-step brief explaining exactly how to convert a finished article or document from one format (Word, plain text, InDesign export) into a specified target format (Markdown, HTML, or structured plain text), preserving all editorial elements correctly.
Required: The source format (e.g., Word .docx, InDesign exported .txt, plain email text) and the target format (Markdown, HTML, or structured plain text). A description or paste of the article's structural elements — headings, subheadings, pull quotes, captions, byline, bullet lists, embedded links, footnotes.
Optional: The name or type of CMS the output will be pasted into (WordPress, Arc, Contentful, Ghost). Any house style rules that affect markup — for example, whether <h2> or ## is used for section heads, or whether links open in new tabs.
A numbered conversion checklist, typically 8–15 items. Each item names the source element, states the target markup or convention, and includes a short example showing before and after. Ends with a short "Watch out for" section listing two or three common conversion errors specific to this format pair. Plain, professional language — no technical jargon beyond the markup itself.
Source format: Word document (.docx) Target format: Markdown (for Ghost CMS)
Article structure:
No footnotes. No footnotes. CMS is Ghost 5. Links should open in the same tab.
Source: Word .docx Target: Markdown for Ghost 5 CMS Prepared for: Editorial handoff
Word: Urban Heat: How Cities Are Rewriting the Climate Rulebook Markdown: # Urban Heat: How Cities Are Rewriting the Climate Rulebook Paste this as the first line of your Markdown file. Ghost will use it as the article title.
Word has no standard Markdown equivalent for bylines. In Ghost, enter the author in the post settings panel — do not include it in the body text. The date is set in the post settings as well. Delete the byline line from the Markdown body entirely.
Word: subheading in Heading 2 style Markdown: ## Your Subheading Here Apply this to all three subheadings. Use ## only — do not use ### unless you have a third level of heading in the original.
No markup needed. Paste body text as-is, with a blank line between each paragraph. Remove any double spaces after full stops — use single spaces throughout.
Word: indented italicised paragraph Markdown: > "No city has solved this alone — the answers are regional or they are nothing." Place the > symbol at the start of the line. Do not use quotation marks unless they appear in the original text.
Word: auto-formatted bullet points Markdown:
- First item
- Second item
- Third itemUse a hyphen and a space before each item. Remove any tab indentation Word may have added.
Word: underlined blue text with a URL attached Markdown: [link text](https://example.com) Example: [a 2023 IPCC report](https://ipcc.ch/report/ar6) — links open in the same tab by default in Ghost Markdown, which matches your requirement. Do not add {:target="_blank"}.
In Ghost, captions are entered directly in the image card after uploading the photo — not in the Markdown body. Remove caption text from the Markdown file. Keep the captions in a separate notes document to paste into Ghost after upload. Markdown caption format (if your Ghost theme uses it): *A caption describing the image.*
Word: italicised Normal paragraph at article end Markdown: *Firstname Lastname is a journalist covering urban planning and climate adaptation. They are based in [City].* Wrap the entire paragraph in single asterisks. Place it after a horizontal rule: --- on its own line, then the bio.
" "). Some Markdown parsers handle these fine; others display them as garbled characters. If you see strange symbols in Ghost preview, do a find-and-replace: swap " for " and ' for ' throughout.<br> tags in some editors, breaking your paragraph spacing. Check that each paragraph is separated by a full blank line, not a single line break.~30 seconds. Free. No account. Every finding cites a rule and a line of evidence.
